benefit to having your own router in front of modem?
i've always had a router in front of the ips modem until my router died recently. is there any specific reason to have a router in front of a telus modem?

sorry i didn't word things right. i have the telus modem... and it has cable coming out to the optik tv pvr. i was thinking more a router "after" the modem for my internal network.
